Selkirk Copper Mines reported high-grade copper intercepts from its Phase 2 drill program at the Minto Project in the Yukon. The company noted that the program has completed 54,711 metres of drilling to date, exceeding its initial targets, to support upcoming feasibility work and a 2027 resource update.
Selkirk Copper Mines has reported high-grade drill intercepts from its Phase 2 program at the Minto Project, specifically targeting Minto North, Copper Keel, and Area 118. The announcement also highlights a recent Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) showing a 13-year mine life and a C$494 million NPV at a $5.00/lb copper price.
Gladiator Metals has commenced an expanded drill program with a fifth rig mobilized at its Best Chance and Grafter prospects within the Whitehorse Copper Project in Canada's Yukon Territory. The company re-reported historical and previously disclosed drill results for context, highlighting several high-grade copper intercepts, some with associated gold and silver. This program aims to accelerate resource definition at Cowley and aggressively test other high-impact targets, with significant drilling planned for 2026-27.
Gladiator Metals Corp. has initiated an expanded drill program with a fifth rig at its Best Chance and Grafter prospects within the Whitehorse Copper Project in Yukon, Canada. The program aims to expand known near-surface, high-grade copper mineralization and advance towards resource definition, building on both recent and historical high-grade intercepts. While recent drilling results are promising, the company notes that historical data, re-reported for context, is not compliant with current reporting standards and requires further verification.
Selkirk Copper announced positive Phase 2 drill results from its Minto copper-gold-silver project in central Yukon, exceeding its 50,000-meter plan. Key intercepts include 44.7 meters at 3.0% copper equivalent at Minto North, confirming grade continuity and extending mineralization. These results are crucial for an upcoming resource update in Q1 2027, which will support the project's feasibility study.
Gladiator Metals has commenced an expanded drill program at its Best Chance and Grafter prospects within the Whitehorse Copper Project, mobilizing a fifth drill rig. The program aims to rapidly target and expand known near-surface, high-grade copper mineralization, with geophysical modeling strengthening the exploration targets. The release highlights strong historical drill intercepts, but explicitly states these results are re-reported for context only and are not NI 43-101 or JORC compliant, requiring future verification.
Selkirk Copper reported significant high-grade copper-equivalent intercepts at the Minto North project, including 44.7 meters at 3.0% CuEq. The Phase 2 drilling program has exceeded its 50,000-meter target and is intended to support an upcoming Feasibility Study and updated mineral resource estimate.
Yukon Metals has confirmed a new copper-gold-molybdenum porphyry-style hydrothermal system at the Viper Prospect in the AZ Project. The 2026 drilling program intersected mineralization in all three holes, including a high-grade intercept of 1.85% Cu and 1.97 g/t Au in hole AZ26-008.
